Scanning slides:
Researched scanners primarily for scanning slides. Even though dedicated slide scanners are supposedly better than flatbeds, I wanted something more versatile that could scan photos as well. I looked at both the Canon and the Epson, but the Canon was much more solidly built and since they make excellent cameras, I went with the Canon. Although the software is a bit quirky and the directions a bit vague, I did get the hang of it and was able to scan slides fairly quickly. No complaints. A very nice machine.
Don't Buy This:
This scanner comes with outdated software! Without it, the results are poor. The software update cost an additional $100.00!
anon CanoScan 8800F Color Film/Negative/Photo Scanner (2168B002):
Scanner is OK. Hadn't used it much, so hard to rate at this time. I gave it a 3-star rating because of the price of the unit.
CanoScan 8800F:
Canon CanoScan 8800F Color Film/Negative/Photo Scanner (2168B002) I had to return it because my computer would not restart when the CanoScan was installed. I couldn't even open in Safe Mode unless I disconnected the scanner. Then I could uninstall and finally reboot my computer. I tried several reinstalls and help tips but never could restart with CanoScan connected. My computer is HP 1620 with XP Professional operating system.
